Beat down the riot by force and hope it scares the populace enough to not do it again. Or at least make sure that the consequences for the rioters are so impactful that they'll think twice about doing it again. It's not pretty, but it's the only way I can think of.
Wow, my mind instantly went to changing policy so that cops are treated with real scrutiny and are actually penalized when they do shit.

But, no, your idea is a real fucking winner. You know, if your aim is more destruction and the problem continuing to exist.

Vaccines aren't something you can throw money at to make them develope instantly.

It was always going to be over a year for a vaccine. With the extra money and focus it was maybe cut down from 2+ years to hopefully one and a half or so.

We can hope for a miracle strain to be developed faster, but I'd say just be prepared for this to go on for another year or so.

It'd be really interesting and rewarding if these areas had little sidequests associated with them, in which you learn the backstory and build a deeper understanding of the game world's lore and history

Might shake things up a bit from the standard questline with just some rupees or whatever at the end of it
I mean, you do get the awesome Sand Boots and Snow Boots out of the sidequests connected to the Eighth Heroine.

Don't think you get much more backstory on the heroine from it though.
